You Know Nothing About Pain

"Let's go first!"

Dozens of minutes later, in the previous temple, everyone sat in the temple and looked at each other, still immersed in the discovery just now.

"How can this tunnel lead directly to the Daming Mansion?" Xiao Li asked with a puzzled face, "Is the undead warrior hiding in the Daming Mansion?"

"Could it be that this undead warrior is a servant hiding in the Daming Mansion." Tian Tian seriously analyzed, "Isn't it often said that the most dangerous place is also the safest place."

"Maybe it's convenient for him to assassinate the daimyo!" Xiao Li slapped his hands and said, "If the daimyo dies, wouldn't Hong Ming become a daimyo?"

"Okay, don't make random guesses." Naruto, who had already known it in his heart, waved his hand and said, "Let's go to the Lord and ask, will we know?"

In fact, Naruto came this time just to confirm his guess. Now that he knows that this tunnel leads directly to the Daming Mansion, his guess about the identity of the undead warrior is basically confirmed.

"My lord?" Ning Ci looked stunned, and said hesitantly, "Naruto, are you talking about..."

Naruto smiled slightly and said, "That's right, it's the counselor Hongming."

After finishing speaking, Naruto waved his hand, motioning for others to follow him, and the brother Qiandao, who is now in a world of doubts, also followed in a daze.

When they arrived at the door of Hongming Mansion, Naruto went up and was about to knock on the door.

Ning Ci at the side saw it and quickly stepped forward to grab it and said, "What are you doing?"

"Why? Knock on the door." Naruto said with a face of course: "Don't you need to knock on the door first when you visit someone?"

"So when you said looking for Hongming, you really came to the door directly?" Ning Ci said with a face full of pain, "A careless door visit? I thought you meant spying on him."

"I don't like dealing with fake things. A real man must dare to face suffering."

Naruto shook his head chicly, and then knocked on the door of Hongming's mansion regardless of the few people.

Dengdengdeng.

Not long after, a man who looked like a servant opened the door from the inside.

"Who are you looking for?"

"Hello, we are here to visit Mr. Hongming." Naruto said with a smile: "Just tell him that we are ninjas invited by Meng Zong to investigate the undead warrior incident."

"A ninja investigating the undead warrior incident?" The servant looked at Naruto suspiciously, and then said, "Okay, I'll report it. I don't know if Lord Hongming would like to see you."

"It's okay." Naruto said with a gentle smile, "You just need to report it."

If the speculation in Naruto's heart is true, then it is impossible for Hongming not to see them, no matter whether he is a loyal counselor or a guy with evil intentions, he will definitely not ignore Naruto and the others.

At this time, behind Naruto, Ning Ci, Tian Tian, ​​and Xiao Li all looked at Naruto with horrified eyes.

I have to say that Naruto really didn't follow the routine, not only came to visit directly, but also said that he was a ninja who came to investigate the undead samurai.

Isn't this the same as a mouse greeting a cat?

It's okay if Hongming doesn't see him, if he does, I'm afraid that there will be three hundred swordsmen hiding outside the house, throwing cups as a sign, and they will hack several people to death when they come up.

Xiao Li quietly poked Ning Ci's back and said, "What do you think Naruto is doing?"

"I don't know either." Ning Ci said hesitantly, "Could it be that he wants to force the truth out of Hong Ming's mouth?"

"It's also possible." Tiantian said from the side: "If it's Naruto-kun and a few of us, there shouldn't be any fear of how many people will come."

Kakashi, who was hiding in the dark, was crazily winking at Naruto, but unfortunately Naruto just pretended not to see him and ignored him. In the end, Kakashi could only give a helpless wry smile, and simply didn't send a signal Now, I took out the kissing paradise directly from the backpack behind me, watching and waiting for the development of the situation.

Not long after, the boy from before came back again, opened the door with a strange expression on his face and said, "Lord Hong Ming welcomes you."

Did you really agree?

Behind Xiao Li, Tian Tian, ​​and Ning Ci all had surprised expressions on their faces, wondering what Hong Ming meant.

A few people followed the servant to a room, and Hong Ming was in it, kneeling and sitting with a samurai sword at the moment, closing his eyes and thinking about something.

After several people entered the house, Hong Ming slowly opened his eyes, and said in a low tone: "You guys came to my place, is there something for you?"

It has to be said that Hong Ming still looks a little imposing, with his calm tone, and this is his chassis, the three of Ning Ci unconsciously felt a little restrained after they entered.

However, Naruto didn't care about how many you were, so he just sat down on the tatami when he came up, and then said with a smile: "Mr. Hongming, do you actually know who the undead warrior is?"

Xiao Li, Tian Tian, ​​Ning Ci:?

No, what the hell is going on.

The three of them were completely dumbfounded now, and found that their thinking couldn't keep up with Naruto's rhythm. They were still discussing and testing Hongming just now, so why did they just go up to A now.

"Oh? Why did you say that?" Hongming replied blankly, "Why did I know the true identity of that undead warrior? Shouldn't you guys be the ones to investigate this?"

"How can I be sure that Mr. Hongming knows? You don't have to worry about that." Naruto smiled slightly, and then changed the subject: "By the way, I know too."

This sentence is tantamount to a bolt from the blue.

Hong Ming:!

Xiao Li, Tian Tian, ​​Ning Ci:? !

As soon as Naruto said that he knew it, Hong Ming immediately lost his composure, and shook his body to maintain a calm posture in front of him.

Naruto has been observing Hongming's reaction silently, and after seeing the other party's panic for a moment, he is more sure of his guess.

But at this moment, Xiao Li couldn't bear it anymore, and said directly: "Naruto, do you know who that undead warrior is? Tell me quickly!"

"That's right, who is that undead warrior?" Tian Tian followed up from the side: "If you tell me, the task will be solved."

But at this moment, Hongming pretended to be calm and said, "What are you talking about, I don't understand at all."

"Really..." Naruto chuckled, and then said seriously, "Since everyone doesn't know, let me prove it."

As soon as Naruto really wanted to reveal the true identity of the undead warrior, the others subconsciously held their breath, quietly waiting for the answer

"The true identity of the undead samurai is..." Naruto deliberately dragged his voice and said, "The incumbent of the Bird Country—"

"enough!"

Hongming suddenly shouted, stood up and interrupted Naruto roughly: "Enough! Don't say any more!"

"It seems that Mr. Hongming is also very clear in his heart." Facing Hongming's sudden outburst, Naruto looked at Hongming without any surprise and said, "In this case, let's talk in detail?"

Hong Ming was silent for a while, and then said in a bitter tone, "Yes, but no outsiders can be present."

"Mr. Hong Ming is really a loyal counselor." Naruto gave Hong Ming a meaningful look, then smiled at Xiao Li and the others beside him and said, "You guys wait for me outside now, wait for me and Let’s talk about this Mr. Hongming.”

Xiao Li and the others looked at each other, a little at a loss, why did they suddenly feel like an outsider when it was clearly their task.

"Don't worry, it's fine." Naruto looked at Xiao Li and the others and said, "Trust me."

Maybe it was Naruto's words, I believe I moved a few people, but Xiao Li, who was always the slowest to react, was the first to react, simply stood up and nodded and said: "Then we will wait for you outside, and we can talk to you if you have anything to say."

After saying that, Xiao Li got up and left the room directly. Ning Ci and Tiantian looked at Naruto's serious expression, and nodded firmly at Naruto, and then they went out of the room together. Ci and Tiantian dragged him out of the house together.

After several people left the room, Naruto looked at Hongming with a smile and said:

"Mr. Hongming, let's have a good chat next, about the boring and childish game of Bird Country." There was a silence in the quiet room, and after the three of Ning Ci went out, Naruto sat down on the floor carelessly , in stark contrast to Hong Ming, who was kneeling and sitting on the opposite side with a serious face, neither of them intended to speak to each other first.

After about five or six minutes, the atmosphere in the quiet room became more and more heavy. Hong Ming couldn't bear it at first, so he said lightly, "What do you know?"

"What do I know? That's something to be particular about." Naruto smiled and said, "Not much to say, not much to say, I know everything I should know, and I don't know everything I shouldn't know." .”

Listening to Naruto's words as if he was playing a charade, Hong Ming frowned. As a counselor, he naturally would not understand Naruto's words. There is a relationship between the attitude of the conversation and the reaction.

If the chat is good, then everyone will live in peace, hello, hello, hello everyone.

But if the conversation is not good, then everything will be difficult to talk about, and everything that is not there will be revealed to you.

What Hongming is most worried about right now is that Naruto will reveal the true identity of the undead warrior. Think about it, a great name in a country pretends to be a ghost every night, disturbing the peace of the whole country, and even trying to kill his subordinates important minister.

If this secret is leaked out, then the current daimyo will come to an end. Whether it is from the face and dignity of the royal family or from the opinions of the public, no matter what, he must change his daimyo.

If this happens, other people may already be overjoyed, wishing that Naruto would let this matter go. You must know that if the current daimyo steps down, Hongming himself will be the next logical successor to the daimyo's position.

Even if they have a bit of integrity, people who are unwilling to do such a thing will probably turn a blind eye to it. I don't encourage it, but I don't stop it either. They just wait for the development of the situation and make a fortune silently.

However, it is a pity that Hongming is neither of the two kinds of people. After all, he is an upright person. In the traditional sense, people generally call this kind of person a loyal minister.

Since he is a loyal minister, it is natural that maintaining the reputation and status of the lord is the most important thing.

Thinking of this, Hongming's eyes couldn't help flashing a cold light, thinking in his heart that if he immediately called the guards in the mansion to come and besiege him, would he be able to keep these uninvited guests?

But Hong Ming thought about it for a long time, and finally gave up on this idea.

Not to mention that the guards in his mansion are all ordinary people, how much chance of winning against the real ninjas from Konoha, even if they can win by relying on the number of people, it is absolutely impossible to keep all the opponents, and when the time comes to attract Muye Ye's revenge is undoubtedly a catastrophe for a small country like the Bird Country.

Besides, since the other party dared to come to visit blatantly, he must have a certain amount of confidence in his heart, and besieging such things is basically useless.

So Hong Ming stopped being entangled, and said straightforwardly: "Tell me, what do you want?"

"I know the purpose of you ninjas, do you want money?" Hong Ming didn't wait for Naruto to answer, and said in a clear tone: "You can make a price, how much is willing to keep a secret, two One hundred thousand taels?"

"Two thousand taels? It's quite generous." Naruto chuckled, then waved his hands and said, "But it's a pity that you guessed wrong. My purpose this time is not for money. It's actually very simple to ask me to keep a secret. Just answer a few questions for me."

"A few questions for you?" Hong Ming immediately became alert: "What do you want to know?"

"Don't worry, I won't ask you any embarrassing questions, just chatting about the doubts in my heart." Naruto smiled and said: "Or it's more appropriate to call it a discussion."

"Discussion?" Hong Ming said with some doubts, "Is it that simple?"

"It's that simple." Naruto spread his hands and said, "As long as Mr. Hongming shows his sincerity and has a good chat with me, I guarantee you will have a satisfactory result afterwards."

The reason why Naruto did this is because he has always had a doubt in his heart, that is, what do these nobles who hold power in the world think.

My previous judgments based on these nobles all relied on the time of occurrence and some reasoning, and I never really talked to the core figures.

In fact, Naruto has had this idea for a long time, but he has never had the opportunity. The nobles of those big countries are not easy to contact, and they may not necessarily talk to you about these things. After all, what Naruto wants to talk about is very deep and has already touched The core of the aristocratic system, the aristocrats who are a little bit stupid probably can't figure it out.

But now Hongming is an excellent choice, the main counselor of a small country, although the country is not big, but the status is high enough to touch the core issues, and as a counselor, he must have a good brain and can understand Naruto's words question.

And judging from the previous signs, Hongming seems to be a relatively straightforward person, and he can be regarded as a relatively bottom-line existence among the nobles, so Naruto guessed that he should have a good chat with the other party.

Of course, the most important thing is that Hongming has something in Naruto's hands now, so he has to talk if he doesn't talk.

So Naruto thought about his words, and then raised a topic and said: "You also know that Meng Zong hired us to investigate, so do you know that it has been rumored that you killed the previous daimyo in the first place?" , the purpose is for the throne of the Daimyo of the Bird Country, and I have heard more than one person say that in the Bird Country."

"So what's the truth?" Naruto said with a smile, "Mr. Hongming?"

Hearing Naruto's question, Hongming's face didn't change any expression. He had heard this kind of rumor too much, and it couldn't stir up waves in his heart at all.

"The clear ones are clear, and the turbid ones are turbid." Hong Ming said expressionlessly, "I have a clear conscience."

"What a clear conscience." Naruto clapped his hands appreciatively, then changed the topic and said, "But your titular lord, the current Daimyo of the Bird Country, doesn't seem to think so."

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Hong Ming frowned and said, "Does this have anything to do with the purpose of our conversation?"

"At least for me, it has a lot to do with it." Naruto said with a faint smile: "To be honest, even as an outsider who just came here, I can see the tricks in it. The current daimyo of the country, to put it bluntly, is a fool, who can even find the wrong person for his own revenge, and works foolishly all day long. Don't you get tired of playing house with such a guy all day long? "
